Webinar Description
NLIHC and partner organizations invite you to join advocates from across the country to learn about new proposals from the Trump administration and Congress that would cut housing benefits by increasing rents, imposing work requirements, and setting de facto time limits for HUD-assisted households.

Panelists will also discuss how advocates can effectively communicate with policymakers and the public about the negative impacts of such reforms and alternative strategies to move families toward economic self-sufficiency.

The webinar is rescheduled for Monday, May 14, 3:00 pmET

Speakers include:

Elayne Weiss, National Low Income Housing Coalition

Will Fischer, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities

Deborah Thrope, National Housing Law Project

Stanley Hardy, New York City Housing Authority
